ALERTER'S COMMENTS
violation of TOS. People have been banned for this.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Apr 7, 2016, 10:43 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Per Skinner (wouldn't let me complete jury duty with link in comment)
"Given that neither Democratic candidate has collected the necessary delegates to win, and neither candidate has suspended their campaign, it is still primary season on Democratic Underground. Members are free to support the Democratic primary candidate of their choice here on DU while the candidates themselves are still actively campaigning for the nomination."
and
"Nobody is getting purged unless they're Trump-humping."
I am leaving it. It is primary passions and Skinner said it doesn't violate TOS.

(23,156 posts)9. More to the point, he's climbing quite steadily
in the polling. And the way the Clinton campaign is flailing out at him they're terrified. I suspect they have internal polling that shows them either in a dead hit, or with him all ready pulling ahead, and he's just barely begun campaigning there.
He has halved her lead in little more than a couple of weeks. More importantly, if you look at her poll number, it hit a ceiling weeks ago and has stalled there while Sanders has only increased, week after week. Both in NY and PA.
While it's not guaranteed, the outlook is very good
